Predictive modelling is a statistical technique used to predict future events or health outcomes. Predictive modelling involves extensive analysis of current and historical data to estimate future trends.
Isolated hepatocytes or their enzymes comprise the basis of most in vitro DMPK and toxicity assays used to predict human hepatic outcomes. Because hepato-specific functions are typically lost...
Pharmaceutical research and development efforts are often both inefficient and suffer from a high attrition rate of drug candidates within the clinical phase of development. Most drug t...
The lung is a highly complex organ, comprised of more than 40 cell types that are responsible for various important functions, the lung’s complexity contributes to the subsequent challe...
This presentation will discuss and review the promise and potential of 3D Microtissues, and the challenges of using these Microtissues as Hazard ID tools. Lastly, we will discuss the potentia...
Approximately 30% of drugs have failed in human clinical trials due to adverse reactions despite promising pre-clinical studies, and another 60% fail due to lack of efficacy. The NIH Tissue C...
Preclinical drug discovery is at the edge of a major transformation that promises to improve translation to the clinic through enhanced acquisition and advanced analysis of data. While an imp...
Xenobiotic-induced cardiotoxicity is a major concern for both pharmaceuticals and chemicals in the marketplace. For drugs, "Thorough QT/corrected QT (QTc)" (TQT) studies are corners...
Analytical chemistry can take you to strange places - for me it has been to the bottom of a quarry, being covered in dirt, excavating sesame-seed sized fossils that allow us to work out when...
To date the anatomic extent of tumor (TNM-classification) has been by far the most important factors to predict the prognosis of cancer patients. However, this classification provides limited...
Lowe Syndrome (LS) is a devastating genetic disease characterized by abnormalities in the eyes, brain and kidneys that unfortunately leads to the premature death of affected children due to r...
When looking to answer complex biological questions, using in vitro techniques, you want the model that best reflects the in vivo condition. For decades two-dimensional cell culture has...
With the advent of cost-effective culturing approaches, 3D cell culture models (3D-CCMs) have been rapidly adopted for drug discovery since they provide a more physiologically relevant micro-...
